Cognitive Composite Scores

Meaning

Cognitive Composite Scores are standardized, aggregated numerical metrics derived from a battery of neuropsychological tests, designed to provide a single, holistic measure of overall cognitive function. These scores synthesize performance across multiple distinct domains, such as memory, executive function, and processing speed, offering a more robust and clinically meaningful assessment than individual subtest results. The resulting composite score serves as a powerful biomarker for tracking cognitive health over time and evaluating the efficacy of targeted hormonal or lifestyle interventions. They allow for precise quantification of subtle changes in neurological performance.
